Chapter 2222 Detective Drama (Second)

During the entire 5-day Xiangjiang International Game and Comic Exhibition, no, it should be added before and after. In a total of 8 days, Xiangjiang can be said to have withstood a great test.

A total of more than 900,000 tourists flocked to Hong Kong, of which 800,000 came to participate in the game animation exhibition.

Whether it is accommodation and catering, traffic problems, or various security issues, while bringing great opportunities to Xiangjiang, they also brought a lot of confusion.

I haven't had such an experience before, so after the end, Xiangjiang Zhengfu gave himself a score of 70 points in this international game animation exhibition, which is not high.

But these merchants in Xiangjiang are ecstatic.

Such 8 days of business, they earn a lot of money.

Whether it is a large or small hotel, or a large or small restaurant, or a variety of tourist specialty stores, the turnover can directly compare with the previous month.

They are really looking forward to having such an exhibition every month.

For this reason, the director of the Trade Development Bureau called Le Yiling and said with a wry smile that the public's expectations of them are too high now, which makes them a little unbearable.

Of course, this is also the trouble of happiness.

As a result, the Convention and Exhibition Center became famous, and now the whole of Asia knows such a place.

Xiangjiang is not only an international metropolis, but also a stage for display.

In the future, those exhibitions that want to face the mainland, or the mainland face the world, will have a suitable stage.

With such an expectation, the utilization frequency of the exhibition center will be much higher in the future.

Le Yiling also told Yin Jun that during the phone call, the director specifically asked Le Yiling that the annual Xiangjiang International Game and Comic Con will be held at their place, and that they should not change the location just because the Lantau Island headquarters of the Qilin Group was completed. .

Yin Jun is naturally not that stupid.

It is definitely not necessary to change places, and it is not worth offending people from the Trade Development Council for a mere game and animation exhibition.

It's just that the boy was told by Le Yiling about the expenses this time.

The previous US$300 million aircraft subsidy was ignored, but Yin Jun’s expenses in Xiangjiang, exhibition rental fees, venue security, etc., as well as various event prizes, cost more than US$200 million.

And this game animation exhibition is just a platform for display, and there are no commercial activities. The sales of those souvenirs and various limited edition games and books are only tens of millions of dollars. Compared with the huge expenses, basically Profits can be ignored.

Calculated in this way, for the first Hong Kong International Game and Comics Expo, Kirin Group had a net loss of 500 million US dollars.

"You said that you are losing money. Why should you bear the exhibition expenses of these other companies? Let them come and occupy the booth for nothing, and they can sell a lot of their own games and books. Isn't this taking advantage of us?" Le My sister scolded Yin Jundao.

"But sister, if you don't give such good conditions, why would they come here on such a large scale?" Yin Jun said innocently, "Our Xiangjiang International Game and Comic Exhibition is not well-known. Can game and animation company projects be labeled with the word 'international'?"

Le Yiling was right when she thought about it.

As an international game and animation exhibition held for the first time, it is definitely necessary to lose money and make money.

If you don't give benefits, how can others come to cheer you up?

It is precisely because they don't need money that the booths of these companies can be arranged as big as they can, which attracts countless fans to visit.

A good and normal industry must be actively developing and a hundred flowers are blooming.

If there are only one or two giants to monopolize, the entire industry will fall into depression and conservativeness, which is also an important reason why European and American countries will work hard to suppress trust companies.

"What about next time?" Le Yiling asked again.

"It should be like this for the first three to five years." Yin Jun said with a shy face, "As long as a virtuous circle is formed, various expenses can be reduced a lot. Although it is very likely to still lose money, compared to the industry With the influence in here, as well as all kinds of subtle benefits, we still took advantage of it."

With this explanation, Yin Jun finally passed the test.

Although Le Yiling is very sensitive to the word loss, the benefits Yin Jun mentioned do exist, so she can only see it as a long-term investment.

There's been a lot of good news lately.

For example, "Detective Galileo", which began broadcasting in early September, has completely conquered almost all audiences who like this type of TV series in a way that is beyond the current detective pattern.

Its first episode had 50 million viewers.

The biggest reason is that the bait thrown by Kylin Satellite TV is too amazing.

"Cannes Best Actor, Oscar nominee, and Xiangjiang's number one superstar, Zhou Runfa, turned out to be a murderer with a close mind. What is the reason?!"

"Zhou Runfa's first big villain co-starring, it's a wonderful experience not to be missed!"

Look, how could the audience not be interested in such a publicity?

Zhou Runfa hasn't appeared in TV dramas for many years.

He and Chen Yulian, a couple of sons and daughters, the fourth season of "Star Teacher", started airing in July, and it happened to gain a lot of new fans.

Now that Kylin Satellite TV has come to catch the heat again, of course it has aroused the curiosity of countless people.

It's rare for a Cannes actor, the most famous superstar in Asia, to appear as a cameo in a TV series, and if he also plays a villain, it's even more interesting.

That's why so many people paid attention to the first episode.

After watching the first episode, countless people were amazed by it.

That is to say, using the principle of reflection and refraction of light to directly kill that violent group, it is really unexpected.

And Zhou Runfa, who was deliberate but pretended to be innocent, after being exposed by Chen Daomin, his hysterical appearance was also applauded.

That's it, Zhou Runfa served as a perfect foil, and then Chen Daomin and Zhou Haimei became popular.

"Detective Galileo" is such a mind-blowing TV series, coupled with the continuous solving of mysteries by university physics professors and beautiful policewomen, it has become the best pastime for people in September.

After just 10 episodes, "Detective Galileo" broke through 100 million viewers, becoming the first drama this year to break 100 million viewers.

By the time of the 20th episode, its viewership has been guaranteed to be around 150 million people, which is about the same as last year's "Joking about Qianlong".

However, the production cost of "Joking about Qianlong" and the status of the star completely surpassed that of the semi-new "Detective Galileo", so this TV series was really an unexpected hit.

The cameo appearance of star villains in each episode is also one of the highlights, but what is even more brilliant is the performance of the two protagonists.

Because of this, Chen Daomin has entered thousands of households in Asia, and his bookish atmosphere from the bones has fascinated many young girls.

Zhou Haimei is responsible for harvesting the favor of young male audiences. Such a sweet girl is also the most popular member of the happy girl group. Her transformation is very successful.

I dare not say that since then, she has become a top-notch TV star, but she has already established her reputation as a popular little flower.

It's just a pity that Kylin TV was going to make the second film soon, but after Chen Daomin starred in "Detective Galileo", he has already returned to the mainland and took on two art films.

If I want to wait until he is free, it will be after May next year.

And Chen Daomin may not be able to agree.

According to him, "Detective Galileo" is too simple, without much training in acting skills, the reason why he was able to appear in it was all because of Jun Shao's invitation.

He himself still likes those challenging roles.

Zhou Haimei liked this TV series very much, so at her request, Yin Jun called Chen Daomin again and invited him to participate in the second filming.

Chen Daomin is a very smart person. He waited for Yin Jun to agree to invest in three literary films in the mainland to give him the conditions to star in, and then he readily agreed to come to Xiangjiang to film again next year.

When the filming is completed, I am afraid that it will only be broadcast in the Spring Festival of 1988.

But that's fine too, broadcasting the sequel of a TV series too frequently will consume the life of the TV series.

"Brother Jun, are you just pampering Brother Ming like this? You have to agree to an investment of at least 10 million RMB before you are willing to play the role. Brother Ming is really not afraid of you!" Zhou Haimei listened to Yin Jun finish the phone call, like a big snake He entangled him, and said in a puzzled way.

At this time, the two were in the most intimate position, the boy was holding the sweet-smelling girl, and he was in a good mood.

Hearing her question, the boy patted her double mounds, and said with a smile: "Why is he afraid of me? He is a talented person, so I can let him have some of it. As for investing, it's not about losing money. Isn’t it our profit if we make money?”

"Don't lie to me, can mainland literary films still make money?" Zhou Haimei couldn't help but coquettishly smiled, "Five or six out of ten of Xiangjiang's literary films will lose money, not relying on overseas distribution and You can’t make any money if you buy it out, let alone in the Mainland.”

"The mainland still likes to watch literary films." Yin Jun explained, but Zhou Haimei still didn't believe it.

But in fact, in the 1980s, there was indeed a wave of literary and artistic films in the mainland. At this time, audiences could accept and watch anything. Therefore, as long as the storyline of literary and artistic films is exciting, people who support them are also welcome. That's a lot.

It's just that later on, commercial blockbusters occupied the lives of young people, and they lacked the cultural upbringing of young people in the 1980s, so they were less able to watch those literary films.

Part of it is because they feel old-fashioned, and part of it is because the directors of the new generation are not as good at telling stories as those directors in the 1970s and 1980s, and the filming is very inexplicable.

The shortcomings of these two aspects did not change until after 2018.

However, there is still a long way to go if we want to achieve the film model of the United States where a hundred flowers bloom.
